2005
Congrats to Andrew Hoffman and Katey Krizan ’04, who were married in April. Tommy Dickie says there were “many Dartmouth people in attendance”—the wedding party included Cliff Orvedal, Adam Sigelman, Doug Hannah, John Agan and Will Morrison.
Congratulations are also in order for Puja Dutt and Stephen Clarke, who plan to get married in Singapore in July.
Christina Yu wrote to say she recently published several fiction pieces in nationally circulated literary magazines, including New Letters, Indiana Review, Gargoyle and the 2008 Robert Olen Butler Prize anthology. This spring she founded her own magazine (www.cavalierlit.com). She says, “Cavalier is a lifestyle brand and literary venue that publishes poetry, fiction and nonfiction in a number of unconventional forms.” You can find it in bookstores in this fall. They’re also planning readings, parties and a fashion and accessories line.
Brooking Gatewood left the Bay Area in April to start a Ph.D. program at UC Irvine. David Hankins and Caroline Kerr are
on the Dartmouth Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Alumni/ae Association (DGALA) board—and the 25th anniversary DGALA all-class reunion will take place in Hanover from October 30 to November 1. David says, “We hope many of our classmates will be able to attend this celebration. More information about the reunion is available at www.dgala.org.”
David also let me know that he’s starting the Harvard Health Careers program, completing his premed requirements. He’s spent the last two years in Las Vegas teaching middle school special education and English with Teach For America.
Christina May has been living in Alaska since graduation doing oil and gas consulting work as a project biologist and environmental scientist and recently changed jobs and works for BP. “I am on a two-week on, two-week off rotational schedule on the North Slope of Alaska, where I work in the oil fields as an environmental adviser for Prudhoe Bay Operations and spend a lot of time bundled in a ridiculous amount of clothes. In my time off I ski, adventure and play as much as possible.”
Matt McKnight and Whitney Maughan were married on March 21 in Orlando, Florida. There were a ton of Dartmouth people present, including ’05s Alexis Ettinger, Jetti Gibson, Phillip Andersen (the best man), Ted Finnerty, Layne Moffett, Kevin Sheehan, Kaitlin Jaxheimer, Jon Urban, Jackie Johnson, Elise Robinson, Katherine Kannenberg, Betsy Williamson, Jesse Klempner, Katy McCarthy, Sasha Rogers, Erin Bingham, Evan Jones, Diana Lee, Chris Kane, Joe Rago, Rob Freiman, Andrew Kallmann, Kyle Swingle, Dave Geenberg, Dan Jackson, Alex Nunez, Erik Richardson, Drue Fitzgerald, Eimile Dalton, John Paro and Dave Grey.

He’s in San Diego as a first lieutenant for the Marine Corps until May, when Whitney will graduate from Columbia University Teacher’s School with a master’s in education. They plan to move to Boston, where Matt will do the joint program between Harvard’s Business School and Kennedy School of Government. Whitney will be teaching.
Guillermo Olivos spent his first years out of Dartmouth in Mississippi and Colorado and is now getting an M.B.A. at the Yale School of Management, concentrating in “social enterprise and economic development.” He hopes to move back to Denver when he’s done.
Big Congrats to Kedar Deshpande, who helped open a new vegan café, the Midtown Greenway, in Minneapolis. He’s working with an animal welfare organization (Compassionate Action for Animals)—they’ll be serving up “simple American foods” to start. To see pictures, go here: www.oldarizona.com/cafe.php.
